Wow the list is looking great! How many racers per heat and how many per main?

There is a chance I might drop out of Pan or F1, but I wont make that decision until after a heat or two...
1, last time a ran a Pan was at the SLC PN race (i think it was 2006?) so, it might be a little too fast for me right now, btw, I just now finally painted my new Pan body so I hope to practice a few times before the event... pending time etc..etc.. (btw, anyone else have a Yellow Pan car? cuz thats what I painted it)
2, Too many classes might make things too busy and take away from just having fun in the other races plus I have to look over my two 12 year old boys cars... they are starting to understand the pits/maintenance thing but still they have lots to learn....

later, I cant wait for some fun in february

1. I remember that race, that's when I first started racing RC's and had just gotten my first mini-z. I got spanked at that race.

2. I know the feeling, last year I ran 3 classes, plus kept cars running for my wife, son and an exchange student we had at the time. I also was helping lots of people with cars and did a few Fet upgrades and repairs as well. it was busy so I'm glad I didn't have to change much on my cars. I still had a blast and had lot's of time to talk and hang out with people.

Julie run a great event and the racing is spaced out pretty good so it won't feel to rushed, but it's up to you to decide what works best for you. It's coming up pretty quick and I'm pretty excited to see and race with everyone again.

we typically will run 6-8 cars in the heats depending on entries. so far the big class is going to be super stock racer and we are looking at probably running 8 cars in each giving us full classes and will run 3 heats, if we add a few more drivers we'll bump it to 4 heat in each round and divide by number of cars. We'll do a resort after each round.

we also run 8 minute qualifiers and 10 minute A mains.

we'll have transponders for you. they just install under the body with some velcro or tape.

What time you expecting to be there on Friday? We plan on arriving around 2pm or so.

last year we stayed at the track until about 10 on Friday night. Others stayed later.

it shouldn't be a problem for you. I'll see if I can save you a spot but is really shouldn't be a problem. We have a larger group coming to this one this year with 9 people.

So far over 80 entries = Awesome.

oh my heck! I can NOT drive a F1 to save my life... it likely will be for sale at the event and here on MZR soon...

However, I can't wait to get up there and race with you guys...

p.s. My Pan Car is very un-predictable on every corner so I hope that someone can show me what I have wrong in the set-up. But it's still race-able eitherway.

looks like a fast track, good job! I might suffer a little bit and leave by 5am Friday to help get me some track time... (10+ hour drive for me)
Lord knows I need the practice, I have not been on a track that big for 6+ years!
